## Description

Narwhal 2 is the most customizable Reddit client, designed as the successor to Narwhal 1. It delivers a fast, efficient Reddit experience with features tailored for power users: view any subreddit, a seamless layout that shows a link and its comments side by side, and swipe voting to quickly rate posts and comments.

Create your own themes, hide and save links to your Reddit account, and add new posts to your favorite subreddits for quick access. Because Reddit now charges for its API, Narwhal 2 requires a monthly subscription to use. Join the community at /r/narwhalapp to share ideas and see what's coming next.
